One brother down, one to go!
I have 2 brothers and both are going through divorces right now. The first one just went to court. Back ground his ex wife is in prison for fraud a federal charge and has does this before. She got 40 years with 30 suspended. So they went to court for their divorce and he got custody of the kids and it was his choice to take them to see their mom. The judge asked my brother if he had a problem with taking them to see her and he said no. The judge told him to pick every 4 weeks, 6 weeks, or 8 weeks. Now the main reason the judge was so against the bm here is b/c she was trying to contest all of it. She didn't want a divorce and she didn't want him to get the kids. The judge asked her you are aware you are in prison right? She said yes. He then asked her you are in for a federal charge right? She said yes./ He then asked her you do you that since this is a federal charge then your husband as the right to a divorce uncontested right? She again said yes. The judge granted my brother everything he wanted and my brother said he would take the kids to see her every 4 weeks. the judge then said you are a very generous man.
I am SOOOOO happy! doing a happy dance right now! I can't wait till she gets out and my brother will tell her to take him back to court to see the kids. Remember she is the one that burned their house down in hopes of some life ins.! We couldn't prove it but her actions that day said it all to us.
Now I have one more brother to go! This one is the saddest as they have been together 10 years and she has been cheating almost the whole time. Now she moved out and never has the kids (my brother does) but expects my brother to pay her!!!

Wow! I'm so glad for Brother
Wow! I'm so glad for Brother #1 that her house burning didn't pay off! How scary!

Great!
I'm glad for your brother and his family. I'll keep my fingers crossed in hopes of your next brother arriving at a positive resolution also.

God, I wish BM would get caught on all the tax evasion she does and go to jail!
Thanks ladies. It also looks
Thanks ladies. It also looks like my other brother's soon to be ex will hang herself in the end. She doesn't have the kids very much at all. My brother has been the one to take them to school and pick them up and take care of them. I also know that she has never had them on a weekend as she lives down the road from my mom. He has been documenting every time he has them compared to when she has them. He has a great lawyer. The lawyer told him he has a90% chance of getting them.
Congratulations to your
Congratulations to your brothers for taking their lives back from their manipulative STB Xs.
I benefited from a divorce myself and though I am a firm believer in marriage I also am a firm believer in a quality life. Sometime the two don't go together if one spouse or the other is not worthy of the commitment.
Though sad, divorce can be a good thing for the viable parent and the kids.
In my experience and opinion of course.
Best regards,
I wished I would have been
I wished I would have been more adamant with my H about turning BM in for fraud against FEMA and Social Services.
Now, I have my reasons to believe that BM is helping SD17 defraud the government just like she did when she was SD's age. I just can't prove it.
Good luck to both your brothers. Divorce is never a fun thing to have to live through.
